I had figured out how to do this, and stupid me, accidentaly erased the scripts. I am looking for a way to use global groups (domain), with using the IF INGROUP command. Please help!

That doesn't work, for some reason on the Win9X clients. Here's what I got, and yes I have KXRPC installed on all DC.

? "Logon Server: " @lserver
? "KIXRPC Server: " @rserver
? "Date: " @date
? "Domain: " @domain

; --Set Workstation Time
SetTime "*"
? "Time syncronized with the server"

Use * /Delete /Persistent

$user= @userid + "$"
use u: "\\brandtpdc\$user"

IF INGROUP("Everyone", 1) = 1 use t: "\\cluster1\forms" endif
IF INGROUP("Safety", 1) = 1 use f: "\\cluster1\safety" endif
IF INGROUP("Controls", 1) = 1 use g: "\\cluster1\controls" endif
IF INGROUP("Estimating", 1) = 1 use h: "\\cluster1\estimating" endif
IF INGROUP("Sales", 1) = 1 use i: "\\cluster1\sales" endif
IF INGROUP("Engineering", 1) = 1 use j: "\\cluster1\engineering" endif
IF INGROUP("McCormick", 1) = 1 use k: "\\cluster1\mccormick" endif
IF INGROUP("Billing", 1) = 1 use l: "\\cluster1\billing" endif
IF INGROUP("Maxwell", 1) = 1 use m: "\\ntmaxwell\maxwell" endif
IF INGROUP("Drafting", 1) = 1 use n: "\\cluster1\drafting" endif
IF INGROUP("DP", 1) = 1 use o: "\\cluster1\dp" endif
IF INGROUP("Project Management", 1) = 1 use p: "\\cluster1\projmgmt" endif
IF INGROUP("Quickpen", 1) = 1 use q: "\\cluster1\quickpen" endif
IF INGROUP("Payroll", 1) = 1 use r: "\\cluster1\payroll" endif
IF INGROUP("Service", 1) = 1 use s: "\\cluster1\service" endif
IF INGROUP("Constructware", 1) = 1 use v: "\\cluster1\constructware" endif
IF INGROUP("Electrical", 1) = 1 use w: "\\cluster1\electrical" endif
IF INGROUP("Domain Admins", 1) = 1 use x: "\\cluster1\mis" endif
IF INGROUP("Purchasing", 1) = 1 use y: "\\cluster1\purchase" endif
IF INGROUP("Accounting", 1) = 1 use z: "\\cluster1\accounting" endif

Nevermind got the Win9X clients to map everything except user drives. Any ideas why? Worked before.

Pause the script and check the value of $User. On some Wintendos, @UserID does not return anything during logon.

Also, with Wintendos, you must leave the Z: drive alone during logon.

Figured it out. Next problem is:

I have a network w/ a VPN to two other locations. They have their own login server, but replicate to all the other DC's (Windows 2000 Native AD). How do you make a seperate login script file that will map what they need to their specific server (i.e. file shares and printers)? I tried doing this and that's how I screwed it all up. Not a programmer, but starting to feel like one. I'm pretty impressed with the program and once you figure out the specifics, it works. I just need to know how this would work. Any ideas would be great!

You can call specific code based on the clients subnet or IP address. Search the UDF library for "Subnet" to get some ideas.

I am using this to delete all drives and any persistent drives. Win 2K is not doing this. Any ideas? Use * /Delete /Persistent

It is mapping the other's, just not getting rid of the old mapped drives, nor overwriting any letters.

Are you saying that that the "Use * /Delete /Persistent" is not removing old drive on W2K only?

Have you tried to "Use X: /Delete /Persistent" where "X" is a drive that does not unmap?

Did I understand your problem?

I take that back it is not working on either (2K nor 9X). I need it to delete all drives first, then remap to what their group is. It maps the groups, but won't overwrite, nor delete any previous mappings. [Razz]

Hmm. not sure you need /persistent

Try just:
code:
USE "*" /DELETE
Also, your $ needs to be doubled in a string
$user = "@USERID$$"

See previous message I edited again.. another thing:

Why are your ingroups like this:

IF INGROUP("groupname",1) ?

They should just be

IF INGROUP("groupname")

correct?

About this:
"I have a network w/ a VPN to two other locations. They have their own login server, but replicate to all the other DC's (Windows 2000 Native AD). How do you make a seperate login script file that will map what they need to their specific server (i.e. file shares and printers)? I tried doing this and that's how I screwed it all up. Not a programmer, but starting to feel like one. I'm pretty impressed with the program and once you figure out the specifics, it works. I just need to know how this would work. Any ideas would be great!"

You can separate the users by their homedir, i.e. $h=@homedir.

Then, using the substr command you can get the server name that the user belongs to. i.e. user: user1 / server: server1 / homedir: \\server1\user1 ==> $s=substr($h,1,9). This way you do $s="\\server1" <=== Server name.

After that, you can use $s in your script:
use e: $s+"\dep"
use f: $s+"\sof"
use i: $s+"\des"
use j: $s+"\pro"
use y: $s+"\cd_rom"
so on....

If you give me more details, I can help you to finish you script.

Troy,

Why not put all users from Location A in a global group called "Location_A" and all users from Location B in "Location_B"

Then you can use:
code:
select
   case ingroup("Location_A") = 1
      call "Location_A.kix"
   case ingroup("Location_B") = 1
      call "Location_B.kix"
   case 1
      ? "Not in A or B...."
endselect

Brian,

In the manual, it states using the ,1 lets it acknowledge they could be in more than one group. Is this not correct?
